Oh dear!
Police seize 120 sports cars during Eurorally 'race' through Germany
Porsches and Lamborghinis spotted doing high speeds on unrestricted part of autobahn

What sort of manpower and resources would they need to put in to do that ?
Utterly stupid.
Just seen this, they've seized a load of sc3ne cars now. Loads of comments saying they must have really been fckin about, but I'm not sure on the truth.
Any of the boys on the VW and sc3ne forums know any more?

They pulled into a service station that happened to also have a police station and got entirely ****ed over. One of the German lads I know has been advising people going to Worthersee to avoid certain parts as the German police are stopping anything looking remotely modified.
Watching some videos of it, the police have a serious attitude problem, one of the cars was getting lifted with straps onto each wheel (really) and the owner made comment on it, to be told that he made this piece of **** and to take it like a man.
Most of the cars are fairly tame tbh. Maybe a wee bit of tyre stretch going a bit far but type of thing that wouldn't bat an eyelid here.
Imagine a car with chopped springs or scrubbing tyres flat out on the AutobahnWheels outside the arches, stretched tyres and ****ed suspension (the Merc is static).
Whatever your views on Sc3ne stuff, you have to be thick to take anything like that near Germany.

Why didn't he just push a button to raise it up ?The Merc is on air actually
Hell slap it up them imo. No TUV approved mods and cars not fit for the road under German law.
They really should have done their homework more before leaving.
The way they are all talking about Germany and the police on fb isn’t going to help them much either

Is air ride VAG stuff not a German thing ? I would think the roads are full of them ! Or can after market stuff get approved ?The air isn't tuv approved so that'll not make a damn bit of difference. They weren't pulled on the road, literally went to get food and the police had a nose round them parked up. The pic added here is lifted a bit as far as I can see too.
So he says but a now deleted post of his claims “the car barely rubs”

I meant is it not a massive thing in Germany. Seems strange for so many cars to not be legal. But suppose it's like our version of D-turbosNope, a lot of the air suspension is made by Airlift who are American, and as far as I know they haven't got tuv approval for any if it yet. I think it can be got, but costly to the company, not sure though.
Belgium seems to be much the same, I've a few friends over there who will put air in their car and then change all the suspension back to standard for inspection time. Must be a complete pain!
